What is The Natural Running Network?
The Natural Running Network was developed with two thoughts in mind... first; to develop a system of training and coaching that is uniquely superior to what is typically offered to the public, second; to create a family of runners who are afforded the ability to participate in our training system all over the country.
Our patented training system is scientifically validated, extremely effective and easy to follow. A member can simply visit our training calendar and with a quick glance at our unique symbols, members will completely understand the theme for the days training at any one of our training locations.
What we offer our VIP members:
Our primary goal is to educate; we teach our runners how to run. As ridiculous a statement as this may seem, we know that a great majority of recreational runners get injured frequently and tend to be frustrated with the lack of solutions as these injuries reoccur. Our runners are empowered with the knowledge and the appropriate training to succeed consistently as the compete throughout the year.
As our network expands, so do the opportunities for our members. Through our private member forum and blogs, our relationships will expand and we will be able to develop limitless benefits, such as:
discounts at events, retail chains, restaurants, hotels, travel, etc. It all is a function of creative thinking and the power of a network rather than a local group.

What sets us apart? Education, quality, experience.
Our members benefit from our synergistic multidisciplinary system of training.
The act
of running requires harmony between the bodies energetic pathways, kinematics and functional strength. Our coaches are taught to implement our unique integrative training system to ensure that each member in his charge clearly understands what to do, how to do it and what will occur as a result. Our members will learn:
- How to precisely implement heart rate as a principal governor during training and racing.
- How to implement the correct bio-mechanics of movement to virtually eliminate chronic knee, back and hip problems.
- How to implement supplemental strength exercises to fortify the body and lead a healthier life style, manage weight, improve posture and of course, perform optimally.
- How to develop a winning pacing strategy that is reliable and reproducible.
- How to deal with injuries in a timely fashion before they manifest into problems that require medical intervention.
